< Jeremiah 21 >

1 The word that has been to Jeremiah from YHWH, in King Zedekiah’s sending to him Pashhur son of Malchiah and Zephaniah son of Maaseiah the priest, saying,
Слово, еже бысть от Господа ко Иеремии, егда посла к нему царь Седекиа Пасхора сына Мелхиина и Софонию сына Васаиева, священника, глаголя:
2 “Please inquire of YHWH for us, for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has fought against us; perhaps YHWH deals with us according to all His wonders, and causes him to go up from off us.”
вопроси о нас Господа, яко Навуходоносор царь Вавилонский воста на нас: сотворит ли Господь с нами по всем чудесем Своим, и отидет от нас?
3 And Jeremiah says to them, “Thus you say to Zedekiah,
И рече Иеремиа к ним: тако рцыте Седекии: сия глаголет Господь Бог Израилев:
4 Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: Behold, I am turning around the weapons of battle That [are] in your hand, With which you fight the king of Babylon, And the Chaldeans, who are laying siege against you, At the outside of the wall, And I have gathered them into the midst of this city,
се, Аз обращаю оружия бранная, яже суть в руках ваших, имиже вы ополчаетеся на царя Вавилонска и Халдейска, иже обстоят вас окрест вне стен: и соберу та посреде града сего,
5 And I have fought against you, With an outstretched hand, and with a strong arm, And in anger, and in fury, and in great wrath,
и поборю Аз по вас рукою простертою и мышцею крепкою с яростию и гневом великим,
6 And I have struck the inhabitants of this city, Both man and beast, They die by a great pestilence.
и побию всех обитающих во граде сем, человеки и скоты, губителством великим, и измрут.
7 And after this,” A declaration of YHWH, “I give Zedekiah king of Judah, And his servants, and the people, And those left in this city, From the pestilence, from the sword, and from the famine, Into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, And into the hand of their enemies, And into the hand of those seeking their life, And he has struck them by the mouth of the sword, He has no pity on them, Nor does he spare, nor does he have mercy.”
И по сих, тако глаголет Господь, дам Седекию царя Иудина и рабы его, и люди его и оставльшыяся во граде сем от губителства и глада и меча, в руку Навуходоносора царя Вавилонска и в руку врагов их и в руку ищущих душ их, и побиет их острием меча: и не пощажу их, ниже милостив буду им.
8 “And you say to this people, Thus said YHWH: Behold, I am setting before you the way of life, And the way of death!
И к людем сим речеши: сия глаголет Господь: се, Аз даю пред вами путь живота и путь смерти:
9 Whoever is abiding in this city—dies, By sword, and by famine, and by pestilence, And whoever is going forth, And has fallen to the Chaldeans, Who are laying siege against you—lives, And his life has been for a spoil to him.
иже обитает во граде сем, умрет мечем и гладом и губителством, а исходяй, иже прибежит ко Халдеом обстоящым вас, жив будет, и будет душа его в плен, и жив будет.
10 For I have set My face against this city for calamity, And not for good,” A declaration of YHWH. “It is given into the hand of the king of Babylon, And he has burned it with fire.
Утвердих бо лице Мое на град сей во злая, а не во благая, рече Господь: в руки царя Вавилонска предастся, и сожжет его огнем.
11 And as for the house of the king of Judah,” Hear a word of YHWH;
Доме царя Иудина, слышите слово Господне:
12 O house of David, thus said YHWH: “Decide judgment in the morning, And deliver the plundered from the hand of the oppressor, Lest My fury go forth as fire, And has burned, and none is quenching, Because of the evil of your doings.
доме Давидов, сия глаголет Господь: судите заутра суд и исправите, и избавите силою угнетенаго от руки обидящаго и, да не зажжется яко огнь ярость Моя и возгорится, и не будет угашающаго, ради лукавых умышлений ваших.
13 Behold, I [am] against you,” A declaration of YHWH, “O inhabitant of the valley, rock of the plain, Who are saying, Who comes down against us? And who comes into our habitations?
Се, Аз к тебе обитающему во крепце и польне удолии, рече Господь, иже глаголете: кто побиет нас? Или кто внидет в домы нашя?
14 And I have laid a charge against you, According to the fruit of your doings,” A declaration of YHWH, “And I have kindled a fire in its forest, And it has consumed all its outskirts!”
И посещу на вас по лукавым начинанием вашым, рече Господь, и возжгу огнь в лесе его, и пояст вся, яже окрест его.
